You have my deepest sympathies. I don't love the two-column boxes (mostly because the hinge is just the molded plastic so it never really opens or stays open without some hand pressure), but the flip side is that they don't have to expose more than 10 compartments at once.
Just returned from a Lake Trout trip.
Tying for next time, I think I know more about what to tie…

I use that exact hook in that size for some of my smaller coho baitfish patterns. They work great.
I wonder how many trout over the years have been caught on this (and color variants) simple fly?
